Hi Steve,

I do believe that the primary keeps them in "proper" phase when sufficient energy is still in the primary. My question was addressing what happens once the primary quenches (should be at maximum energy in the secondary). I'm thinking that phase drifting begins at this moment in time if not before. I guess I'm assuming these two coils are side by side and not a bipolar coil. Even with a bipolar coil, if the center turn is grounded, I dont know if the magnetic coupling will keep them properly phased. Maybe Antonio can shed some lite on this.

Gerry,

Like you say, the series connected primaries force the secondaries to stay
about 180 degrees out of phase with each other and at the same frequency.
Once the secondaries have discharged and are ringing down, they probably do
exhibit relative phase shift, although there is still some fairly strong
electrostatic coupling between the two top loads until the voltage dies off.
But so what if their phase wanders during the last part of their ring-down.
The next "bang" from the primary jolts them back into the proper phase to
unleash connecting leaders again.
